7 cups

ingredients
- 4 1⁄2 cups plums, pitted and chopped (do not peel, I think I used 11 red plums)
- 1 cup water
- 3⁄4 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon light corn syrup (helps prevent sugar from crystallizing when frozen)
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1⁄2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 (1 3/4 ounce) box dry pectin (the less-sugar or no-sugar-needed kind, I used Ball brand)
- 1 cup water
directions
- Combine prepared fruit with 1 C water, sugar, corn syrup, and extracts. Mix thoroughly. Let stand 10 minutes.
- Gradually stir pectin into 1 C water in a small saucepan. Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Boil hard 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Transfer cooked pectin mixture to a large bowl. Slowly stir in fruit mixture. Stir for 3 minutes.
- Ladle jam into 1-cup freezer jars, leaving 1/2-inch headspace. Adjust caps and let jam stand until set, but no longer than 24 hours. Serve immediately, refrigerate up to 3 weeks, or freeze up to 1 year.
